What's it like for vodafone in the likely CC08 cruise area?

Not too bad, but very localised - the signals for all the operators are extremely variable. Between us we use Vodfone, O2 (and T-Mobile for the laptop). Reception can often be surprisingly good on open water, but small communities like Balvicar get no coverage at all.

Think Vodaphone is better than Orange - as Shard says spasmodic, sporadic coverage but much improved over the past 10 years.

Many thanks. Looking forward to the weekend

you didnt say if you were hoping it would be very good coverage, or very bad so that nobody could get hold of you

Based on the recording of a drunken rambling once shared with us, I would guess the latter

Hi Jools, I've often wondered about the link from Tom Eckhart for that recording. Does it still exist? If so, where...?

I never never met Tom, but instinctively felt that I knew and liked him. Still get an odd feeling when I come across some of his very funny/pointed/barbed comments in old threads. Seemed a very decent person.

Regards

what a memory. are you sure you`re not really an elefant

It's odd how a train of thought works innit?

Only met Tom once, briefly, at tcm's boat show do last year but he made an impression and we had some fun over an anti-inspirational calendar that matt was trying to foist on one or other of us.

Would love to have the link to that recording.
